It is, unfortunately. You can youtube it and come up with some pretty interesting videos of people either running (not sprinting) at sprint speed, or, in the absolute worst cases, going full "no-clip" and flying around the map.I've never seen it personally in a PvP match, though I've heard rumours. However, I have seen it within the regular game map. I was once in Central Than and saw a group of five people hovering over the gound and flying (literally) at break neck speed. They had the animation of simply jogging, but were actually flying. They seemed to have cleared the entire map in less than 5 seconds. I'm not sure what they were doing, mind you, because they kept repeating the action over and over, bouncing east to west, but they were doing it.

And yeah, it probably would look pretty amusing to see 72 people gliding around at first, but I don't think the fights would be fun if we could all just easily glide in and out of our attack ranges without having to actually go through the motions, and I have a feeling that the result would be most PvP'ers swapping to casters or ranged, since Melee would be at a disadvantage trying to catch people that could move without restrictions and still fling arrows or spells at the person chasing them without concern or penalty.
